Sarah Kroger is a Nashville-based Catholic worship leader and songwriter. She is a GMA Dove Award-nominated artist, songwriter, and worship leader who has released six albums, 'Your Time' (2011), 'Hallelujah is Our Song' (2013), 'Bloom' (2019), 'Light' (2020), London Sessions (2023) and her latest project, 'A New Reality' (2024). Sarah met Jesus in an intimate encounter through worship at a youth conference; “Worship became my language with God,” she explains. “It allowed me to communicate with the Lord in a way I hadn’t experienced before; there was something about it that opened my heart.” Realizing that music was a gift, she desired to give back to the Lord, Sarah began leading worship at her church and has since done worship concerts all around the world.
With 'A New Reality', it is Sarah's hope that people will come away knowing that it's okay to question, to pull on the string, and enable the unraveling to happen knowing there is One who is gently mending the tangled threads back together into a beautiful, reconstructed tapestry. |
